Chapter 9.6, Problem 9.4P

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: How to use the acidity of $\text{hex}-1-\text{yne}$ to remove the last trace of it from a sample of $\text{hex}-1-\text{ene}$.

Interpretation: The use of acidity of $\text{hex}-1-\text{yne}$ to remove the last trace of it from a sample of $\text{hex}-1-\text{ene}$ is to be shown.

Concept introduction: Distillation is a process used to separate the liquids from a mixture. It works, if boiling points of all liquids in a mixture are different. The low boiling point liquid would evaporate easily as compared to liquids that have high boiling points, if boiling points of two liquids are the same, then liquids are separated by converting one liquid into non-volatile form.
